Mjuk Lov: a soft promise
The cake kit

The cake they'll remember, because you made it.

We bake the cake and colour the buttercream, and hand it to you finished and white, foolproof. You do the one thing no bakery can: make it theirs. No skill, no risk. Just the quiet brag of “I made that.”

Made fresh in Gothenburg. Collected by you.

Why we leave the best part to you

When instant cake mix arrived in the 1950s it nearly failed. Baking became so effortless that no one felt the cake was theirs. The fix was almost nothing: let the baker add one fresh egg. Suddenly it meant something. That's the whole idea here. We take every step that needs a baker, the parts that go wrong, the parts that take years to learn, and stop one short. The last step, the one that turns a cake into your cake, is yours. It's also the only one worth doing.

Psychologists call it the IKEA effect. We just call it the point.

We do three steps. You do the one that matters.

  1. You design it

    Size, flavours, the reason. You brief the cake before it exists, nothing off a shelf.

  2. We do the hard part

    A cake baked from scratch, buttercream coloured, everything portioned. Every step that needs a baker, done, and stopped one short on purpose.

  3. You make it yours

    At your own table: decorate it, brush, spoon or pipe, whatever you chose, write the name, make it look like the person. A few looks to follow, your tools ready, impossible to get wrong.

  4. You made that

    Set it down with your fingerprints all over it, in front of people who'll never guess how easy it was.

Reserve your day, collect it in Gothenburg when it suits you. Kits need 3 days' notice, party packs 7.

You genuinely can't get this wrong

A finished white cake, ready for you. Pots of buttercream, already coloured. A few looks to copy, and a guide the whole way. We've removed every place a cake can go wrong before it reaches you. What's left is the part you'll want to do. If you can write a name, you can do this.

The cake kit's contents laid out

It's all in the box

  • A finished white cake, ready to decorate: the baking's done, the canvas is yours.
  • Pots of ready-coloured buttercream: three colours, no mixing, no mess.
  • Your choice of tools: brush, spoon or piping bag, two included; mix them however you like.
  • A few looks to copy, or ignore, and make it your own.
  • A step-by-step guide, with you the whole way.
  • Candles, because someone's worth them.

More an evening than a dessert

Clear the table. Pour something. Make the cake together, then watch their face when they realise you made it. A date, a catch-up, a small ceremony for two or six. The kind of evening a bought cake can't give you.

Made by you

The first ones are in the oven.

Make yours, tag @mjuklov, and you might land here.

FAQ

I've never decorated a cake.

Perfect, that's who this is for. The hard part's done; the rest is guided and forgiving.

Is it good for just the two of us?

It's our favourite reason for it. The 15 cm is sized for two to a few.

Can I choose flavours and colours?

Yes, you choose when you order.

How long does the cake keep?

The components are fresh. Keep cool and decorate within 3 days of pickup.

Is it suitable for allergies?

Made in a kitchen that also handles nuts, milk, eggs and gluten. Always check the packaging of any products you add at home.

How far ahead should I order?

Three to five days is ideal. We confirm a pickup day when yours is ready.
